Acquisition of Ticketfly, Inc. ("Ticketfly")

On October 7, 2015, we entered into an agreement to acquire Ticketfly, a leading live events technology company that provides ticketing services and marketing software for venues and event promoters across North America. Pursuant to the merger agreement, we have agreed to pay $225 million in cash and approximately 11.6 million shares of common stock, subject to customary adjustments for working capital, cash, indebtedness and transaction expenses. Per the agreement, we are entitled to a net cash balance of $50 million as part of these adjustments. In addition to the purchase price, unvested options and unvested RSUs of Ticketfly held by Ticketfly employees will be converted respectively into unvested options and unvested RSUs to acquire our common stock. The closing is subject to customary closing conditions, including the expiration or termination of any waiting periods under applicable antitrust laws, and we expect the closing to occur in the three months ending December 31, 2015. We will include the financial results of Ticketfly in our condensed consolidated financial statements as of the date of acquisition.
